The five Rothsy girls were in big trouble. They had tried to escape the horrible living conditions in the Rothsy Girls Home, and they had been caught. Supreme Commander Reginald Botta was incensed and decided to use them to set an example. He was going to stage a spectacular spectacle and hang the girls from a gallows in the public square outside his headquarters in Metro Metropolis. To further prove his point, he is also going to include the director of the girl's home as well as all five boys from the Rothsy Boys Home. "No one will every forget Hanging Day," Botta promised. The newly formed Pierpoint rebel force will have none of it. With the help of Sendal from Creekside Meadows, they decide to attempt a daring rescue and try to save the prisoners. But they are up against the full force of the Supreme Commander and his army. The rebels are only a few dedicated citizens. However, they are committed to doing their best. The lives of innocent people are at stake. But will their efforts be enough?
